Sisters Of Mercy Chords by Leonard Cohen

[B] _ All the sisters of [E] mercy, they [B] are not [F#] _
departed [B] or gone.
_ _ [E] _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ _ [D#m] They were waiting for [A#m] me when [G#m] I thought that I [A#m] just [F#] can't go on.
_ [B] _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ _ _ And [E] they brought me [B] their comfort [C#m] and later [G#m] they brought me [F#] this song. _
[B] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
Oh, [B] I hope you [E] run into them, [B] you _ [F#] who've been traveling [B] so long.
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] Yes, you who [E] must leave [B] everything _ [F#] that you cannot [B] _ control.
[E] _
_ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
It [D#m] begins with [A#m] your family, but [D#m] soon it comes [A#m] round [F#] to your soul.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Well, I've [B] been where you're hanging, [A]
I think I [G#m] can see how [F#] you're feeling.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
When [B] you're not [E] feeling holy, [B] your Lord may [F#] never serve you as [B] you've _ [E] sinned. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Well, [B] they lay down [E] beside me and [B] I made my [F#] confession [B] to them. _
[E] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
[D#m] They touched both [A#m] my eyes [D#m] and I touched [A#m] the dew on [F#] their hands.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
If [E] your life is [B] a leaf [A] that the seasons [G#m] tear off and [F#]
condemn, _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ they [B] will bind you [E] with love that [B] is graceful [F#] and green [B] as a stem.
[E] I _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [A] _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[B] left, they [E] were sleeping, I [B]
hope you [F#] run into them.
[B] _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
[G#m] Don't turn on the [A#m] lights, you can [G#] read their [A#m] address [F#] by the door. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
And you [E] won't make me [B] jealous if [A] I hear that [G#m] they sweetened [F#] your night.
_ [C#] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _ _
We [B] were lovers [E] like that and [B] besides, it [F#] would still [B] be alright.
_ _ [E] _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ We [B] were lovers [E] like that and [B] besides, it [F#] would still be [B] alright. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
